The Sand Castle
|
January 9 - February 8, 2009 Chopin Downstairs Studio Directed by Brian Golden* |
"Each actor delivers at least one finely tuned moment of emotional vulnerability."
- Kerry Reid, Chicago Reader
On a quiet California beach, the Renolds family spends a wistful summer evening gossiping, studying and singing forgotten songs. But in the twilight, the Earth is moving. Irene faces a life-changing decision, and Sunset Cliffs won't be the only thing a summer storm brings crashing to the ground. With poetry, wit and humor, Lanford Wilson delivers a forgotten classic of American theatre, a dazzling meditation on family, heartbreak and growing older. Theatre Seven produces a rare treat: a brand new production of this seldom produced masterpiece!
"Of the bazillion Off-Loop startups, Theatre Seven shines as one delivering on considerable potential . . . bonus points for producing Lanford Wilson's rarely seen drama."
Chicago Magazine
